[quote=Anonymous]My family lives between Kensington and Silver Spring. We are excited about elementary school (Oakland Terrace), but I'm not sure about middle and high school (Newport Mill & Einstein). We're 10 years away from middle school, so plenty of time to see how things develop. We'd like to look into private school options, but all of the private schools around here seems to be religious. Are there other options? We attend church, but don't subscribe to a particular denomination. Catholic school, in particular, seems like a bad fit, since we are not Catholic, but that seems to be the predominant option (e.g., Holy Cross, Redeemer). Is it realistic to expect a private school option to be conveniently located near our home? FWIW, we're also not really interested in alternate, Montessori-style education. We want an academic environment where expectations are high (but not too much of a pressure cooker), where our children will be challenged, nurtured, and exposed to new things. Any recommendations?[/quote]
